Objective: To analyze the characteristics and key risk factors of abnormal blood disposal throughout the 2024-2025 blood collection and supply process based on nationwide multi-site monitoring data, develop a comprehensive prevention and control strategy across the entire chain, reduce preventable blood waste, and ensure clinical blood safety. Methods: According to the Guidelines for Haemovigilance (T/CSBT 001-2026), we extracted 74 cases of abnormal blood disposal events reported by the China Blood Transfusion Association′s Blood Safety Monitoring System from January 1 2024, to December 31 2025, and conducted descriptive statistical analysis on the distribution of events, types of deviations, root causes, and classifications of disposal manifestations. Results: A total of 664 adverse events related to blood collection and supply were reported over two years, with 74 cases involving discarded abnormal blood units, accounting for 11.1% of the total. Among these, blood component preparation (40.5%) and blood collection (37.8%) remained traditional high-risk stages. The proportion of blood waste occurring during storage, distribution, and transportation increased from 7.7% in 2024 to 34.3% in 2025. Deviations from standard operating procedures (SOP) by personnel were the primary cause, accounting for 74.3% of cases. Discarded blood units were categorized into four types: compromised closed blood bag systems (40 cases), mainly due to inadequate heat sealing, physical damage, or dropped bags; blood out of the cold chain (12 cases), primarily resulting from blood being left at work sites; imbalanced proportion of preservation solution (10 cases), mostly caused by blood collection volumes exceeding the standard capacity of blood bags; and other causes (12 cases). Conclusion: Human operational errors are the core cause of abnormal blood waste. The collection and preparation stages have long been at high-risk, and the risks in the storage and transportation stages have been increasing year by year. We should focus on standardizing personnel management, improving specialized operation norms such as heat sealing, transportation, and storage, establishing a full-process intelligent cold chain monitoring and multi-node visual verification mechanism, and systematically reducing the occurrence rate of abnormal blood waste through a closed-loop quality intervention system, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of voluntary blood donation resources.

Objective To annalyze the effect of launching blood virus nucleic acid test(NAT) centralization in Chongqing Municipal Blood Center.Methods The various links and key control points in the aspects of the transportation,detection and information system of 32 137 centralized test specimens submitted from 14 basic level local blood stations in Chongqing counties from January 2016 to June 2016 were analyzed.Results Among 32 137 centralized specimens from January to June 2016,55 specimens were rejected for various reasons,the NAT single reactive rate was 5.1‰(164/32 137),which in the Chongqing Municipal Blood Center was 2.3‰(129/55 859)during the same period.The identification detection rate in the basic level blood station was 1.8‰(57/32 137),while which in Chongqing Municipal Blood Center was only 0.6‰(35/55 859).Conclusion The effects of launching centralized NAT have already gradually emerged in Chongqing Municipal Blood Center.The detection ability and level have differences between the laboratory of basic level blood station and blood screening laboratory of blood center.Gradually increasing the centralized test degree conduces to comprehensive improvement of blood detection efficiency and blood saftey.
